Abstract
The related art has the problem of difficulty in providing the maximum number of actually superimposable images from an image-capturing apparatus to an external apparatus to which superimposition images are to be set, so that normal superimposition image setting cannot be performed from the external device. An image-capturing apparatus includes a reception unit configured to receive a request to acquire information on setting of superimposition information; and a transmission unit configured, when the reception unit receives an acquisition request, to transmit a maximum number of superimposition settings that the image-capturing apparatus can perform and a maximum number of settings for each kind of superimposition information.
